Premium value for the money. Great color variety. Very smooth, good quality and highly pigmented.

I found the pastels to be extremely soft and some of them even crumbled without barely any pressure being applied.

This was my first purchase of soft pastels and I LOVE THEM. I use them in combo with some MUNGO pastels for background filling. These were recommended by my pastel teacher and they are excellent. These soft pastels are pretty expensive so do your homework as to how they're made. You don't have to buy the top of the line to get excellent results. Ive been painting in acrylic, watercolor, charcoal and decided to try out this new medium ... it's awesome. If you are doing portraiture in soft pastels get the pan pastels...they are the Cadillac of pastels. Soooo fun.

They are very hard. And too small for me to work with.

I love these pastels, & will definitely buy more. The colors are vibrant & beautiful, they apply really well, & don’t crumble extensively.

These pastels are fast becoming my favourite. The selection of colours is excellent - some landscape sets of other brands have some strange colours but in this set every colour is useful and relevant to landscape painting.I noticed the set has gone up $19 in two weeks. I paid $150 AUD for them. Inflation is outrageous at the moment. Nevertheless I’m very happy with the brilliant quality of these pastels.
